Meet My Wife Likes Books — The Reading Friend Group You've Been Missing

Season 1

Wednesday, March 4, 2026 • Duration 01:39

My Wife Likes Books is the podcast for people who love reading but have no one to talk to about it.

Three friends with completely opposite taste in books — a read-everything obsessive, a fantasy and literary fiction devotee, and a romantasy lover — meet every fortnight to recommend, argue, and overshare about their reading lives.

If you've ever felt like the only reader in your friend group, you've found your people. Hang out with us wherever you get your podcasts.

Your hosts are Sarah Berry, Sallie Chedburn and Sophie Bishop.

Who Are We? Three Friends, Zero Shared Taste in Books

Season 1

Monday, March 9, 2026 • Duration 01:21

Before we get into the books, meet the hosts.

Sarah reads everything and has opinions about all of it.

Sophie lives for fantasy and literary fiction and has a complicated relationship with romance.

Sallie is a burnt-out romantasy reader who reads selectively but feels deeply.

Together we somehow make it work — mostly by disagreeing.

My Wife Likes Books is for readers who want a friend group, not a review show.

Hang out with us wherever you listen to podcasts.

What Actually Happens on My Wife Likes Books — Hot Takes, Book Fights, and a Readalong That's Already Hurting Us

Season 1

Friday, March 13, 2026 • Duration 01:17

Every episode of My Wife Likes Books follows the same format — and here's exactly what you're signing up for. We share what we're currently reading, put a book on trial for praise or criticism, dig into a reading-life theme, and work through our communal readalong of Hanya Yanagihara's A Little Life together. Fair warning: we already have feelings about it. New episodes drop every other Tuesday starting 17th March. For readers who want a friend group, not a review show. Follow us wherever you get your podcasts and leave a rating — it genuinely helps more than you know.

Reading Goals, A Little Life Chapter One, and Three Books You Need to Read Now

Season 1 · Episode 1

Tuesday, March 17, 2026 • Duration 53:34

Sarah is reading The Last House on Needless Street by Catriona Ward, Sophie is deep into Golden Son by Pierce Brown, and Sallie is working through Trial of the Sun Queen by Nisha J. Tuli.

We're also bringing our first offerings to the table — Sarah recommends Piglet by Lottie Hazell, Sallie makes the case for Monk and Robot by Becky Chambers, and Sophie champions Red Rising by Pierce Brown.

Then we get into our first theme: reading goals. Do we set them? Do we keep them?

And we kick off our A Little Life read along with chapter one reactions.

For readers who want a friend group, not a review show.
